If your ring is strictly typedef'd, you could use Data Type Parsing to find the path to the typedef, then extract the strings and values from there.
Can you show me an example? I don't see how this can be done.
Here.
One very important caveat: If you make changes to a strict typedef of a ring, then apply those changes, by default, the changes will only be applied to controls and indicators, not to constants. However there is an undocumented property of ring constants called "Act as Strict Typdef Constant" which, when set, will have applied changes propagate to that constant. I have set that property to TRUE in the constant in "My Ring Item Iterator.vi".
I believe that if you change the data type of the typedef'd ring, the BD constants update as well. e.g., changing from u16 to u32, applying, then changing back to u16 and applying.
